Clothes Washer
|
 | Uses 66% less water (great for wells & septic systems) and 75% less detergent |
| Uses 50% less energy because of heating less hot water; can save you over $340 annually if you currently do just 8 loads per week |
| Even though it still may be working, just think about
the costs of using your current washer—it all adds up! |
| Currently named as a ‘Best Buy’ in the 2001 Consumers Digest Annual Buying Guide Issue |
| Can pay for itself within two years at 8 loads per week |
| No agitator or transmission; tumbling action is more gentle on clothes for less wear and tear |
| Faster spin speeds for less drying time |
| Patented tub design forces water through clothes to clean more effectively |
| Can hold up to 50% more laundry than traditional agitator washers |
| Fewer moving parts means less maintenance |
| Longer life expectancy; expected to last 20-25 years with average residential use compared to 12 years with a standard top load agitator washer |
| Staber is a very durable, commercial-quality washer for the home, as opposed to a standard domestic residential washer |
| Over 26 years of experience in the laundry industry provides Staber with the knowledge to produce the best-built and most efficient washer available |
|
Has top
loading convenience so you do not have to bend over to load/unload |
|
Uses about
half the water (around 12-16 gallons compared to 22-28 gallons), thus less
energy to heat the hot water |
|
Uses less
detergent (1 ounce compared to 2-3 ounces), due to less water per fill and
better agitation with our patented tub design. This represents the largest
savings. |
|
Has a quicker payback period due to using less resources |
|
Durable stainless steel inner and outer tubs, as opposed to a plastic outer tub |
|
You have
immediate access to the inner tub while washing if you forgot to add a pair of
socks, whereas a front loader is always locked |
|
Patented
tub design creates water pumping action to clean more effectively than just
circular tubs |
|
No front
water seal (or rubber boot), eliminates future leaking problems and mildew |
|
Two re-greasable
bearings per shaft, supported on front and back, as opposed to just one
bearing on the back of the tub which cannot be re-greased. This provides
greater durability over time. |
|
Total front
access enables consumer to easily maintain and service washer
|
|
Save on
maintenance costs |
|
Staber is a
more durable, commercial-grade washer as opposed to a standard domestic
residential machine |
| Do you want to use around 45 gallons of water per load or
around 15 gallons of water? |
| Do you want tubs made of durable stainless steel or tubs
made of plastic or porcelain? |
| Do you want to heat an average of 3 gallons of hot water or
12 gallons of hot water per load? |
| At an average of eight loads per week, do you want to spend
around $600 each year to use your washer or just $260 with a Staber? |
| Do you want to use 1 ounce of detergent per load with a
Staber, or 4-8 ounces per load? |
| Would you like to wash up to 16 full-size bath towels in
one load, or just 8-10 towels with a traditional agitator washer? |
| Would you like to reduce your drying time by about 30% (and
save more energy) by using a Staber that features a much faster spin cycle? |
| Would you like to have
total front access to parts and no transmission to reduce your maintenance
expenses? |
| Do you want a standard
residential domestic washer that will last an average of just 12 years or a
commercial-grade washer for the home that will last 20-25 years? |
| Do you want your tubs to
be circular, or do you want them to be shaped so that they create a passive
pumping action in the water to clean more effectively? |
| Would you prefer a
heavy-duty four strut suspension to prevent the washer from ‘walking’ in the
spin cycle? |
| Would you like to have two re-greasable bearings per shaft,
supported on the front and the back of the tubs for greater durability? |
| Do you want your clothes to last around 30% longer because
of using a gentle tumbling action as opposed to using a harmful agitator that
can shred your laundry? |
| Would you like to use around 135 watt-hours of electricity
per load to use a Staber, or around 600 watt-hours to use a traditional
agitator washer? |
| Do you want your warranty to be voided if using solar power or not? |
Even though it still may be working, just think about the
costs of using your current washer—it all adds up! You
can now see why a Staber washer makes so much more sense compared to a
traditional agitator washer.
|
Currently you may be spending
over $600 annually to operate your washer if you are doing around 8
loads per week.
|
|
Therefore, if you invest
in a Staber washer now, it will provide you a return of around $340 each year
for the rest of its life. (This does not include the savings in reducing your
drying time, and the time saved in having to possibly do fewer loads.) |
|
This gives you close to
a 30% return on your investment every year you own it. |
Benefits for Consumers Using Solar Power
The Staber also gives alternative energy users the most efficient washer available for handling their laundry needs. The Staber runs very efficiently, operating on only 110–150 watt-hours of electricity per wash load. It uses about 4-5 amps during the wash cycle, and surges to about 7 amps when the motor starts.
Unlike other washing machine manufacturers, the warranty is not voided when used on a solar power source. This, while using an average of only 15 gallons of water per load make the Staber the most energy efficient washer available and the best choice for consumers living "off-grid."
Solar-Related Advantages of the Staber over Traditional Agitator Washers: | Operates on alternative power sources without voiding warranty |
| Lower operating energy; only uses 110-150 watt-hours of electricity per wash cycle |
| Less water usage—the System 2000 saves around 25-40 total gallons of water per load (10 gallons of hot) |
| Less detergent used because of less water; save 75% of your detergent costs |
| No transmission means less power used, no big surge when motor starts, and longer life expectancy |
| Washer will pay for itself due to its 75% savings in your detergent costs and maintenance savings |
| Total front access enables consumer to easily maintain and service washer |
| Extracts more water for less drying time to save more energy |
Top lid is raised and looking down on dispensers and tub. This is how the six-sided inner tub appears when open. Up to 16 full-size bath towels can be easily loaded because of no agitator in the way. The six-sided inner tub rotates inside of a stationary eight-sided outer tub.
